The house, the house, Quick or they're
lost" said John springing over the brush
and flying to the dwelling. The others fol-
lowed, and arrived just in time TO see John
grasp the sizzling fuse, tear it from its
fastening and throw it from him. In an
other moment the house would have been
blown to pieces, for the villains had pried
from the foundation a stone and placed in
the cavity keg of powder, and when ohm
reached the burning fuse it was almost be-
yond his reach.
Our hero had but little time to think, after
he had disposed of this great danger when
two guns appeared around the corner Of
building, and two determined men were
backing them up.
John, at a glance, saw here another dan
ger that he and his companions were in.
They were likely to be mistaken for enc
mics and shot by their friends. The muz-
zles of the guns were not ten feet away,
and pointed directly at him. Up went his
hands as he commanded them not to shoot
I'VE are friends, Henry Don't shoot"
he cried.
A dark figure shot past him in the dim
light, and stopped between him and the
deadly guns At that instant the crash
came, one of the guns had vomited
forth its deadly charge. and the dark form
sank, with groan, to the ground between
them.
MY Cod What have you done What
have you done" cried John, forgetful of
everything but that a terrible tragedy had
been enacted there.

envelope such a scene, he beheld the form
of his faithful slave and friend, jeff, the

who had been so faithful TO him and his

THE END
Hints on Early Education,

This work was first published sixty years
ago in London, anonymously. Its author
ship has been attributed to sister of
Elizabeth Fry, the eminent philsnthropist;
but. although it passed through eighteen
editions in England, the name of the au-
thor never appeared on the title page. The
practical good sense, clear insight, intelli-
gent discrimination, and high moral stand
ard of the Hints make the book very
helpful. II mo, cloth, 90 cents.
Rev. John Hail, d. D., says: Il have

there anything In the volume that tends to
